I was out all week with the flu. I cannot fathom how DGL could play with the flu (nor how that is safe for him or the other players).

If he is on medication like tamiflu that will reduce viral shedding making it less contagious

With Coleman I definitely understand that plus he did his 4 years and the extra COVID year that was given to all the players was another push for him to get his money. Also, like some of the insiders had said, Coleman felt 4 years was enough with Underwood. Now, Luke Goode on the other hand I think we had a better chance of retaining but Brad over recruited which led to Luke leaving. Luke Goode is hands down a better Big Ten player than Booth and Jake Davis. I haven't checked Goode's stats lately but the last time I did checked Luke was shooting 40 percent from 3. Luke has been very vocal with Indiana and he's always encouraging the players in every game whenever he's on the sideline.

With Goode we should have given more value to veteran leaders...especially when the assistant coach group was effectively blown up

Just watched Hawkins and Goode play and was wondering how much better we would be if either or both were still here (I understand we probably could not afford them)...

We wouldn’t be talking about either if we could throw it in the ocean right now. I do miss Coleman, although he drove me insane sometimes. Luke…. Nah. Good kid but having Luke right now would not be a difference maker.

Said this before the last one before knowing Harper was going but I think this one is a comfortable victory. But what the hell do I know at this point

for our offense to rum smooth we need to ^^^^^....................

anigif_original-24659-1427224081-38.gif


since the ru loss I have seen so many new posters giving their opinions and God bless we still can do that for now.......give or take 3 ,months from now and who knows what individual liberties we will still possess , but for today I still can give a futile and meandering voice for supporting the Fighting Illini with all my O & B blood coursing through this disheveled and worn out body......

some of you newbies need to realize many of us oldsters here have read ad nauseum similar idiotic hot takes over the years and remain unfazed by your chicken little jabs at BU , staff and players.......you really really look infantile and asinine ,
but " Gung Ho" go for it.............................A snarky low IQ agenda is so endearing and just so cute to witness here ......My problem is that of the so called newbie's have many years as a member here with less than 50-60 post totals and even less positive reaction scores.......seems like a loss or a losing streak means you can finally carve a niche here no matter if it helps or hurts morale inside this glorious body of Illini Nation veterans who are battle tested against your feeble attempts to storm the established towers of
the blood and guts won perimeters surrounding the beloved......

carry on posting whatever you deem necessary to enlightening our thoughts , but realize every post like that going forward diminishes your audience and effects......

sorry for the manifesto , but I felt it is my right to call out what has been going on here for far to long ..BU's seat is not warm , lukewarm or anything other degree that you try to hang on it.........



Time to watch my favorite team compete for a win. and root for......

JMHO.........................
